Irue Word of the Néophyte, where existence is taken to import that phase of the whole which is the finite resolution of the Qabalistic Zéro. Finally, the total numération of the Word AUMGN is ioo, which, as initiâtes of the Sanctuary of the Gnosis of the O.T.O. are taught, expresses the unity under the form of complété mani¬ festation by the symbolism of pure number, being Kether by Aiq Bkr 1 2 ; also Malkuth multiplied by itself ~, and thus estab- lished in the phénoménal universe.

He was in bed the whole of the next day, and when I called on him the morning of the day after that I found nothing had been done to cast a veil over the natural results of his indiscretion. But that was Neuburg all over. He was physically the filthiest animal that I have ever known. His gifts were supernatural. I remember giving him a saucer to clean: it had a very small quantity of yellow oil pint in it, left over from painti…

Also, for every peppercorn that did shoot from thy podex, thou hadst a balm. Wise art thou who badest me sell this my garden to buy more pepper therewithal.6 Repine not, therefore, O man ! at the chastise- ments of Allah ! Each of these will He a thousand- fold repay. And the pain that I suffered at thine infidelities is well repaid by this thy love restored. Thou shalt never leave the side of El Qa…

…ight but to do thy will. Do that, and no other shall say nay.” Write it also in your heart and in your brain: for this is the key of the whole matter. Here Nature herself be your preacher: for in every phe- nomenon of force and motion doth she proclaim aloud this truth. Even in so small a matter as driving a nail into a plank, hear this same sermon. Your nail must be hard, smooth, fine-pointed, or it will not move swiftly in the direc- tion willed. Imagine then a nail of tinder-wood with twenty points—it is verily no longer a nail. Yet nigh all…

Frankly, my whole being revolts from their methods, and I had rather acquiesce in the ulti- mate destiny and achieve it as quickly as may be. My earnest preoccupation is to avoid the preliminary tor- tures, and I am convinced that the explosion of a dyna- mite cartridge in the mouth is the most practicable method of effecting this. There is just the possibility that if all thinking minds, all spiritual beings, were thus…

…ruction. Note how new cognate ideas arise to enrich the formula. 666 Letter F August 20, 1943 Cara Soror, Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. Let me begin by referring to my letter about the motto and make clear to you the working of this letter. In this motto you have really got several ideas combined, and yet they are really, of course, one idea. Fiat, being 811, is identical with lAO, and therefore FIAT YOD might be read not only as "let there be" (or "Let me become"), the secret source of all creative energy, but as "the secret…

Owing doubtless to my early ill-health, I never developed physical strength; but I was very light, and possessed elasticity and balance to an extraordinary degree. I remember going out on Scafell with a man named Corry. He was the ideal athlete and had gone through a course of Sandow; but had little experience of climbing at that time. I took him up the North Climb of Mickledoor. There is one place…

Before I left for New Hampshire, we had a farewell meeting. She was now too far advanced in gestation to appear in public, so her husband had persuaded her to go to England for the confinement, and also to make various necessary arrangements with regard to the future. He had now cunningly pretended to give way about the divorce, admitting my right to my child and its mother. His real motive was ve…

On one occasion, at Malvern, the mathematical master wished to devote the whole hour to the three elder boys, who were going up for some scholarship, and set us juniors to work out quadratic equations. There were sixty-three in the chapter set. At the end of forty minutes I stood up and said, "Please, sir, what shall I do now?" he would not believe that I had worked them correctly, but I had. I seem to have an instinct for appreciating the relations of pure numbers and could find fa…

The odour of man seemed to fill her whole subtle form with a feline agility, with a beauty irresistible. One step nearer and then she sprang at Frater P. and with an obscene word sought to press her scarlet lips to his. As she did so Frater P. caught her and holding her at arm’s length smote the sorceress with her own current of evil, just as a would-be murderer is sometimes killed with the very weapon with which he has attacked his victim.
